Overview
- Renal papillary necrosis is associated with damaging the renal medullary and papillary cells due to many diseases such as diabetes, sickle cell disease, urinary tract obstruction, renal vein thrombosis, pyelonephritis, tuberculosis, vasculitis, cirrhosis, renal transplant rejection and long term analgesics and alcohol abuse. In infants, it is associated with asphyxia, dehydration, and sepsis.
Causes
- Common causes of renal papillary necrosis include[1][2][3]:
- Diabetes
- Sickle cell disease: most common cause in children
- Urinary tract obstruction
- Renal vein thrombosis
- upper urinary tract infection or pyelonephritis
- Tuberculosis
- liver cirrhosis
- systemic vasculitis
- Renal transplant rejection
- chronic alcohol abuse
- abuse of acetaminophen and analgesics containing phenacetin such as NSAIDs
- Renal papillary necrosis may also occur less commonly in infants due to[4]:
